TAME GRASSES IN SEDGwICK.
Mr.. Ed .Jewett saws he made a visit

Mr. Ed Jewett says he made a visit to
a farm few miles southwest of the city
a few days ago and came back with more
confidence in the Arkansas Valley than
ever While there he saw some alfalfs
clover which had been sown last May and
was giving better pasture than any other
grass on the farm. He also sew a field OF
blue grass which had been sown last year
and looked as green ard fresh and as much
suited to the soil as if it were in Kentucky.
In the many years he has lived in the
state he had always feared that tame
grasses would not grow but the practical
demonstration that it will he considers,
much better than all theories that it will
not grow in Kansas

THE MO>IER CASE

The scaffold which now stands on the
west side Of the jail is daily attracting
sight seers. Yesterday there were fully
500 persons who visited the spot. They
commented upon and criticised the struc-
turc, and even went 50 far as TO endeavor
to throw the trap to find out with what
efficiency it could perform its CHASTITY
work.
There is great deal OF. indignation ex-
pressed at the report that the execution
would be public. There has as
yet been no stockade built
nor any preparation made for its erection.
The county commissioners have, too, eX-
pressed a decided objection to the county
property being used for the purpose of a
public execution, and they yesterday in
Structed Sheriff Hays to infOre the |. :.
authorities of their objection. The sheriff
sent the following telegram to Mr. Jones,
L. S. marshal, at Topeka:
w. S. Jones, Topeka-The county com
missiOners refuse to let Mosier hang with
out stOckade W. w HAYS, Sheriff
At = O'Clock the following message was
received in reply:

The condemned man has little to say re-
garding his fate. He is now confined in
the south cage with six ether prisoners.
His conduct has all along been that of APP
parent entire unconcern, but yes
terday Ed Darnell, the jailer, says he
seemed to be more uneasy and nervous
than on any other day, Whatever he may
expect to do, he keeps his own counsel.
Sheriff Hays says, that, from what he
knows of the boys character, he feels sure
that he will carry out whatever he may
make up his mind to do. If it be to kill
himself he will do it IF he has to beat out
mis- brains on the bars
